Texan Charles Farmer left the Air Force as a young man to save the family ranch when his dad died. Like most American ranchers, he owes his bank. Unlike most, he's an astrophysicist with a rocket in his barn - one he's built and wants to take into space. It's his dream. The FBI puts him under surveillance when he tries to buy rocket fuel, and the FAA stalls him when he files a flight plan – but Charles is undeterred.

So an unemployed farmer named Farmer (really!) built a big rocket in his shack, financially ruined his own family, took children out of school to help him with his stupid task (free labor, right?) and blackmailed his neighbors to get money for fuel. Clap clap? Not really.

Sometimes a tearjerker and unabashedly inspiring, it has a strong performance from Thornton. Not as funny as I was hoping, but see the movie on its terms and it will be fun.
